Not that i care that much, but imho INVALID is more accurate in some
cases.

For instance, if one reports about app/foo being broken but happens to
have ricer CFLAGS in his "emerge info", his report will be closed as
INVALID... which is exactly what it is: an invalid report, because not
made in sane conditions.  This resolution usualy comes with a note
which tell to reopen if the bug still happen after app/foo has been
recompiled with sane CFLAGS.  The possibity that there is a real bug in
app/foo is left open.  At the contrary, NOTABUG sounds to me like a
definitive answer.
